ESPNDiamondbacks starter Michael Soroka left Friday's game against the Minnesota Twins after one inning with posterior left hip discomfort. The 28-year-old right-hander allowed two hits on nine pitches in a scoreless first inning. He came out for the second and appeared to hurt himself after one warmup pitch.
Soroka met with a trainer before leaving the field and was replaced by Taylor Clarke. The team announced that Soroka left due to discomfort to his posterior left hip. Both Soroka and outfielder Jordan Lawlar will undergo MRIs on Saturday, manager Torey Lovullo said following the 9-5 win.
Lawlar left in the ninth inning with a right hamstring strain. Lovullo said the MRIs will determine if either player needs to go on the injured list. Soroka has an 8-3 record and leads the Diamondbacks in wins.
He has gone 4-3 in his last seven decisions after a 4-0 start. The same day, right-hander Ryne Nelson was placed on the injured list with a sprained elbow and strained forearm. Nelson experienced discomfort after pitching seven innings in a 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Monday.
He has a 3-5 record. "It's been brutal," Lovullo said.
